Lool! Such a stupid mentality you have. I’m in no way racist but I know that these ladies aren’t doing this stuff. Just because they’re a part of a group that you don’t like (not do I) doesn’t mean they’re going around publicly acting racist. That would be insane and they wouldn’t last 5 minutes in todays world. You’re writing fiction for internet points.

How do you "know"?

I don't think you really know, and you're defending racists with no proof. While that may not technically make you be a racist... It's not a good look for saying you're not.

I don’t know but I can be pretty confident. That DoTC place is filled with people that want to continue their little club and they know that the public is against them. They’re actively trying to just go under the radar and stay out of trouble. Why would a group trying to stay out of trouble go around stirring up trouble? It makes much more sense that a redditor in a sub full of fervent left wingers, takes the opportunity to rile up anger towards them by making up a story that everyone will believe. This is internet 101 and is happens all the time on here.

You’re wrong. I gave a more detailed account in another comment and like I’ve said before, this was 15 years ago. 15 years ago people didn’t get canceled for saying racist stuff like that.

Fair enough. I’ll retract my statements. I didn’t know it was 15 years ago

Many different people here are sharing their negative experiences with the daughters of the confederacy. But you're "pretty confident".

Okay buddy. Internet 101 for sure.

In my experience echo chambers tend to all build their stories and anger on top of each other as some sort of fun and cathartic release…

I’m taking a step back and reconsidering by stance though. I think I might have been wrong

You’re an idiot if you think people don’t say this kind of shit because they absolutely do. You gain nothing by defending them.

I guess I’m a bit insulated because I’ve never seen it outside of lakeside. I’m reconsidering my stance

This was 15 years ago, way before people got canceled for being racist.
